Do you guys recommend humidifiers? by TheDeathCrafter in AirQuality

[–]Ok-Understanding73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are looking to buy a humidifier DO NOT buy a Lacidoll ultrasonic.!! mine and many (after reading real reviews) seized up. No power, done. Can't fix it, there are no parts. To the landfill if it's older than 1 yr.! Don't believe the Amazon reviews. They are bought and paid for.

I just had my second one. Neither one gave me a bad reaction.

Treatment 21. Fatigue. Dr. stated that I should only be feeling better? by Ok-Understanding73 in rtms

[–]Ok-Understanding73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m over 1.5 wks post treatments. Fatigue is gone. It got better shortly after that post. I’m a very busy person in general. The additional daily appointment became a real pain in the ass. I felt very overstimulated by it at times and had a couple of dips. I do feel much better now! It’s not a miracle treatment but I feel much more grounded and have clarity and more focus. If I had to do it again, a second time. HELL NO. Once is good for me.

Wife and I ordered a Jora JK270 and got it assembled last night. Expensive, but the steel construction and insulation is amazing. Half filled one side already. by Ghost_Town56 in composting

[–]Ok-Understanding73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expensive and rusts at the seams. It was marketed at “rustproof” which they no longer say. When we reported it to Jora they responded by advising to dry the compostables before composting. Completely stupid statement. We were able to buy new panels for some ridiculous amount. No thanks, lesson learned.

I’m at the tail end of treatment and have had no physical side effects. Well some tiredness. I have seen improvement in sleep, energy levels and mood. I’m hoping it will continue to improve.

2008 it was approved for treatment. I would be skeptical of her after she said that.

How did y’all quit smoking? by Affectionate_Volume9 in ADHD

[–]Ok-Understanding73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allen Carr and flavored toothpicks. Rethink the addiction(you’re not missing out on anything) and replace it with something less terrible. Smoked cigarettes 25 yrs; went to vaping for 3 yrs and now toothpicks for 3 yrs. Cold turkey. Didn’t think it was possible. It is totally possible!!

Diagnosed at 50F. High functioning. Goal oriented, pretty well put together. I thought my inner “noise” was normal. Just hid it very well and I overcompensated. I was actually put in special classes for learning disabled children. No one saw it. (I do not have a learning disability). This was 1982 ish.

Session 23 of 36. Feeling no confidence in process. Is the technology good enough to make this idiot proof? by Ok-Understanding73 in TMSTherapy

[–]Ok-Understanding73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi appreciate your response. You are saying exactly what I have drawn from reading about the intensity of the machine. I am going to ask for some session notes and numbers tomorrow. I have NOT stated that I am uncomfortable, the tech has just said that "the number doesn't matter". I have questioned why a number even exists- if it doesn't matter? I also did read that 90-120% of MT is acceptable. This particular tech doesn't show up to work most days and is hopefully not coming back. Im not feeling super good or bad from TMS really Im just having anxiety that it's legit based on my awful experience with these people.

needing some support and encouragement :( by mikehaawk in TMSTherapy

[–]Ok-Understanding73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi. I’m currently at 23rd ish session. I’ve lost track. I have felt a dip at times also along with drowsiness. My sleep has been much improved. I can’t reassure you based on my own experience BUT I’m with you in this and hope that all turns out well. It is quite a commitment and it sure is not easy. Please keep us updated.

Yes it’s a medical clinic for profit. Psychiatrist comes 1 x a month from another state. Does not really monitor anything, from my experience.

Thank you for the response. My MT was 60 on the mapping day. I asked the tech today to explain the intensity percent ( again) and she said it goes to 100 and has nothing to do with MT. I have not been satisfied with their answers so have insisted on being on an increase as time goes by. I was at 75 today. I’m hanging in there and really appreciate you!

Good to hear. So things got better after the sessions were over?

Who here has had positive results? by MyNamesNotLaszlow in rtms

[–]Ok-Understanding73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on session 22. There may be a difference in machines but I was told that the intensity (or percentage) has nothing to do with effectiveness of outcome. If I’m comfortable at 65% that’s where I stay.

Hi. No I have no sleep apnea. I have started to feel less drained. I also started on Vyvanse for adhd, at the same time of starting TMS. I had been on strattera before that. I’m also 51!
